“You don’t have to be a man to fight for freedom. All you have to do is to be an intelligent human being.”

Concerning non-violence: it is criminal to teach a man not to defend himself when he is the constant victim of brutal attacks.

A man who believes in freedom will do anything under the sun to acquire, or preserve his freedom.

So early in my life, I had learned that if you want something, you had better make some noise.

Learn to see, listen, and think for yourself.

The only way we’ll get freedom for ourselves is to identify ourselves with every oppressed people in the world.

You’re not to be so blind with patriotism that you can’t face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or says it.

My sincerity is my credentials.

If you don’t stand for something you will fall for anything.

I’m for truth, no matter who tells it. I’m for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I’m a human being, first and foremost, and as such I’m for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.

I could spend the rest of my life reading, just satisfying my curiosity.

Only those who have already experienced a revolution within themselves can reach out effectively to help others.

As long as you are convinced you have never done anything, you can never do anything.

It’s liberty or it’s death. It’s freedom for everybody or freedom for nobody.

Policies change, and programs change, according to time but objective never changes.

Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today.

Who taught you to hate yourself?

I’m more into MMA than any other sport. I watch a lot of the UFC fights. I have since it first came onto the scene.

I was a sportsman for years. I’ve always had a physical background. I’ve always had an interest in boxing and fighting. To get physical in films is a dream. I love it.

Its not about the dog in the fight, its about the fight in the dog!

During the Depression, or back when we were fighting Hitler, people didn’t have time to sue a company if the coffee was too hot. There were urgent, pressing problems. If you think you have it tough, read history books.

I like fighters who come to fight.

My mom used to say that I became a fighter and a scrapper and a tough guy to protect who I am at my core.

Catholics are born for combat.

My message to you is: build up physical strength not for aggression, not for militarism, but for becoming fighting fit, all your life and all the time in every walk of life of your nation wherever you be and always to be a force for peace, international amity and goodwill.
